"The second layer is the production layer, where there will be all kinds of fully automated production plants, which will produce all kinds of things, only you can't think of it, and you can't do it without him."

"So powerful? Why don't you produce a spaceship and leave? ”

Hearing this, Calais couldn't help but ask.

"It's... Of course, it can't be produced..."

Erica felt a little speechless, and she thought so too, but in the end, in the manipulation of the program, the production failed.

"If you have the skills to build a spaceship, why don't you produce the parts and assemble them yourself and leave the city?"

Calais thinks about the problem from a different angle, but it also makes Erica's little face even more bitter.

"We don't have the technology for a spaceship... Insufficient access permissions..."

Their people have also thought of many methods, including making protective clothing and making exoskeletons, in order to be able to fight the Discipliners and go to the outside world for a walk.

However, in the end, they all ended in failure, except for one time when one of the strongest people appeared in the gathering place, but in the end he accidentally died under the siege of several of the Discipliners.

After all, the precepts are the ones who can kill even the practitioners, and it is really difficult for them to resist in the face of the precepts.

"You go on."

Seeing Erica's appearance, Calais no longer continued to ask, but asked her to introduce it.

"The third level is the dwelling level, as you just saw, where you fought the adjudicator."

"There are no precepts and sequencers stationed on the abode level, but there are adjudicators, so we don't usually stay on the third floor."

"The fourth layer is the armed layer, and the human weapons produced by the second layer will enter the fourth layer for standby, and if there is a problem, it will be exported to the entire city, and the scene of the problem will be reached in the shortest possible time."

"Originally, there was only one adjudicator patrolling the residence layer, and seven of them appeared because you killed the original adjudicator, so seven adjudicators were temporarily dispatched from the armed layer."

"I see."

Calais nodded, looking suddenly realised.

Erica knew this well, and she could see at a glance why Calais was hunted down by the seven adjudicators.

Calais is the high-level erasure target of the system, and if it weren't for the fact that he had increased his access to the fourth-level passage and made it impossible for the adjudicator to enter, he wouldn't have been able to save Calais at all.

"The fifth layer is where you just looked, and all the servers are in that layer, and there is a lot of data about the city's operations. And the lounge just now is at the bottom of the data layer, so you can see so many servers when you look up. ”

"I used to have only the most basic permissions, and I could only view a small amount of data."

That's what he said, but the smug look on Erica's face was not disguised at all, and it was obvious that she had a good hacking trick to get into the MacAze Dynasty's server.

"Now that you have the authority to adjudicate, will you be able to see more data?"

Calais asked impatiently.

"Theoretically, it should be possible, but I need some time to try."

Hearing Erica's answer, Calais also nodded and stopped asking.

"At the bottom of the map is the core layer where we are now."

Erica stood on tiptoe and raised her hand to point to Calais on the map, telling Calais where the two of them were at the moment.

"Didn't you say that there are two layers in the core? Don't see a label on the map? ”

Calais saw the clue, the place where the two were already at the bottom of the map, and the place where the real mastermind was located was not marked on the map.

But Calais could feel that the soles of his feet were thick alloys, and he was probably still some distance from the core.

"Well, the core layer below is just what I heard from the elders of the clan, and I don't know it myself."

Sticking out her tongue, Erica looked a little embarrassed in her reply.

"Well, then you try to get permission first, and I'll go for a spin."

"Hmm."

Leaving Erica alone at the console, Calais went out for a stroll alone.

Erica is also well-behaved, and she does whatever Calais tells him to do, burying herself headlong in the world of the program, trying to obtain more advanced permissions.

The control room is huge, as there are many holographic giant screens hanging in the sky, which take up a lot of space.

There are lounges, offices, entertainment areas, etc. around the control room, and the passages are also well-connected, so it is easy to get lost without a map.

Looking at the place so constructed, Calais couldn't help but feel that this place was once inhabited by people before, and everything here was clearly designed for the staff in the control room.

From Calais's point of view, the various facilities here are relatively backward, after all, it is more than 2,000 years ago in technology, and backwardness is also very normal.

Calais quickly walked around, but found no passage other than the gate to which he had come here.

Does the Mastermind really exist? Could it be Erica's intelligence blunder?

Calais felt strange and began to think.

But he was not willing to give up, and half-crouched down, his hands on the alloy floor, and the purple thunder began to stir.

He wanted to see if he could use his strength to probe the space beneath the control room.

The power of the thunder is good, and it can be said to be unimpeded in the alloy floor, all the way down.

"Insulation!?"

The speed of the thunderbolt was very fast, and it was all the way down to find something that was not quite right.

The appearance of the insulation layer means that the builders of the city must have taken precautions and buried their brains in a deep place.

This is a disguised proof that the mastermind really exists!

Seeing hope, Calais's thunder force kept pointing downward, passing through three layers of insulation before finally reaching the open place.

"That's too long, isn't it?"

As he went deeper underground, Calais gradually discovered that the mechanical city he was in was just the tip of the iceberg, and that there was an even larger volume buried underground.

Underneath are all solid walls made of thick alloys!

The power of the thunder spread over a long distance, and if it weren't for the good conductivity of this alloy and the breakthrough of the Holy Eight Desolations, he would not have had the opportunity to transmit the power here.

But even so, Calais still felt that it was extremely difficult, almost to the limit.

"It's going to be 3,000 kilometers!?"

Calais could feel that the metal below had become red-hot, and the high temperature of more than two thousand degrees made his thunder power begin to become uncontrollable, not to mention that extending his thunder power for such a long distance would be difficult to do if it weren't for the Holy Eight Desolations.

"Found it!"

Just as Calais was trying his best, he finally found an empty secret room after 3,700 kilometers.
